Blown Saves

Famous quotes containing the words blown and/or saves:

    Taffeta phrases, silken phrases precise,
    Three-piled hyperbole, spruce affectation,
    Figures pedantical—these summer flies
    Have blown me full of maggot ostentation.
    I do forswear them.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Neither fear nor courage saves us. Unnatural vices
    Are fathered by our heroism. Virtues
    Are forced upon us by our impudent crimes.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
